So if I accidently hit you in the nose with my elbow it won't hurt you?No harm meant, no harm done.
Truer words were never spoken!!Man you dont see many of those anymore.
I guess it all depends on your definition of 'rare'. In 1991, 20 years ago, my understanding is that Alfa imported 650 cars to the US, Spiders and 164's. I don't know the breakdown in numbers, but if you assume 50/50, then assume that half of them are now gone, that means there may be less than 160 ish US model 1991 Spiders.Actually, there is probably a grain of wisdom the seller(s) might pick up from these remarks, which seem to be gentle teasing at the worst.
For instance, whenever I see the word "rare" quoted in an ad for a vehicle or part that is obviously not rare, I automatically assume the seller is either badly informed or intentionally trying to prod a foolish person into snapping up something based upon their "rare" pronouncement. I NEVER buy anything from people who fluff their ads in this manner, as their credibility is pretty much nil, and their ethics at least in question.
A seller coming to a specialist site such as the BB would do much better to state "just the facts, ma'am", and trust that any buyers here will be reasonably well informed and know the market.
Yes, Yes, that's all I meant to convey by my comment. Nothing slanderous or malicious. Plus, if you see my 'time stamp' it was midnight and my diplomacy meter shuts off promptly at 9 pm each day.Actually, there is probably a grain of wisdom the seller(s) might pick up from these remarks, which seem to be gentle teasing at the worst.
